By KMAN Staff on February 7, 2012 State News

GODDARD, Kan. (AP) A carjacking suspect who died in a gunfight with law enforcement officers was a 52-year-old man from Wichita.

Reno County Sheriff Randy Henderson said Tuesday the suspect was Darren J. Baker.

He was shot Monday afternoon after a chase that began when police in Goddard tried to pull his vehicle over for a traffic violation.

Henderson says Baker left the stolen vehicle north of Cheney Lake and started firing on officers, who returned fire.

Officers from four different law enforcement agencies were involved in the shooting.

Kansas Bureau of Investigation agents are investigating the shooting.
